Scavello's on the Island makes your dreams come true

This is a gorgeous venue. Paul Scavello is a gem. He helped us think about every details, took care of everything, and delivered more than we could have dreamed of. EVERYONE, Michaela, Guy, and the rest of the team made our day special. The food was exquisite and the service was impeccable. Several of my guests said that it was the best wedding they had ever gone to. I have already recommended a friend who is planning her wedding next year to hold it there. If you want a hassle free yet perfect wedding, go to Scavello's on the Island and ask for Paul!

Wedding During Covid

This is an absolutely beautiful venue, the staff were very professional, accommodating and they took all the precautions they could doing a wedding during covid.

However there is one thing they need to fix. There is a room that is provided for the bridel party to get dressed in, which we really appreciated, but that room was way way too small, and it was hot because it does not have a built in AC system, there was just a fan. If they could improve the size of that room and and get a built in AC system, like what have in the ballrooms, then this venue would be perfect. That being said, i would definitely recommend scavello's to anyone who asked, the place was beautiful but because of that one thing i give them a 95% grade and 4 1/2 stars. The rating system unfortunately does not allow for that.

Words cannot express how special Paul and Michaela made us feel today . Our ceremony started late and to help us enjoy more time with our family and friends, Paul extended our celebration free of charge. Michaela was super helpful and friendly. She had no issue assisting the bride through some dilemmas. The food was AMAZING! Best place for any celebration. The generosity of the folks at Scavello’s is humbling!
